The Black Sorrows - Live From The Shangri La (2025)

“An incredible live recording that captures the spark that defines The Black Sorrows.”
— Forte Magazine

"A snapshot of a band always moving forward.”
— Joe Camilleri

Under the charismatic leadership of Australian music legend Joe Camilleri, The Black Sorrows have become one of the country’s most enduring and dynamic musical forces. With a sound built on soul, blues, gospel, country and pure rock’n’roll energy, the Sorrows have sold over three million albums worldwide, earned ARIA Awards, and carved a reputation as one of Australia’s hardest-working and most respected bands.

Their 2023 studio release, The Way We Do Business, showcased the ever-evolving songwriting partnership between Camilleri and longtime collaborator Nick Smith, blending heartfelt storytelling with rich, genre-blurring arrangements. But it’s onstage where the Sorrows truly catch fire.

Enter Live From The Shangri-La —a limited-edition live album that captures the band in full flight. Described by Forte Magazine as “an incredible live recording that captures the spark that defines The Black Sorrows,” and by Camilleri himself as “a snapshot of a band always moving forward,” the album features classic hits like Harley & Rose, Never Let Me Go, Chained to the Wheel, and the unreleased Don’t Look Down.

With a killer lineup and a relentless drive to keep things fresh, The Black Sorrows continue to deliver soul-fired rock with passion, authenticity, and timeless style.
